Most americans would refer to you as a traitor. It is no wonder that Neocons are referred to as the American Taliban. Look everybody, we have a member of the American Taliban on board! What color is your turbin? Red but of course.

Winston Churchill never switched his loyalty. That is more important.

An extremely rare breed he would be to day, it takes principals and conviction to be loyal. Most politicians the world over do things out of preference today, convictions are viewed as obstacles to furthering their power. Loyalty is viewed as a lack of sophisticaton for fools and the uneducated.

All respects but one should put Christ first before anything else, especially your country.

Mitts much-vaunted "business experience" amounts to being provided with capital by his rich, politically connected father and family, and not managing to lose it. Well thats a step better than Bushit anyway, who got the same handout from a rich, politcally connected family, but blew it all. But its not exactly a rags to riches story--more like "Rich boy does good."

And he managed to avoid the troubles of the Vietnam war when his daddy, a Mormon big cheese, certified boy Mitt as a "preacher man" because he was handing out the usual Mormon crock door to door. This was Mitts service to his country during the draft prone Vietnam affair!

Now Mitts 4 sons are helping his fathers presidential bid. Mitt recently touted this as his sons service to their country to get him elected, similar to US soldiers serving in Iraq. Seems to me we are dealing with a family of cowards, swindlers, and used car salesmen. Americans have had enough of his type.

A visitor.

all you people like this are idiots, the little I know about Mormons is that they love their county because they believe it was formed divinly by God and they will do everything to honour and protect this country and the reasons our fore fathers founded it.

Actually, Mormons are among the most patriotic Christian faiths in America. One of the most basic and sacred principles of the LDS "Mormon" church reads, "We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law."

The Church, in one of it most oppressive times in history, put together a battallion when called upon by the US government. Numerous men left their families vulnerable to the elements to go and serve their country. Today, there are numerous military leaders and soldiers that are LDS, including my late grandfather who faught in WWII and the Korean War. The LDS Church is the epidemy of patriotism.

However, I''''m certainly no expert. I''''m only basing my opinions on what the man has said and done. I just think changing one''''s mind shouldn''''t be a problem. Don''''t we all change our opinions as we get older?
